Persuasive Writing: Why kids shouldn't get paid to go to school

Persuasive Writing - Why kids shouldn't get paid to go school:

This is an option with which I completely disagree.I disagree with this option because I believe that if you were given the choice between getting paid to go to school or coming to school to study, you would select the money. But this is not a wise decision, we didn't go to school to get paid, we went to learn and receive an excellent education. You could acquire a job or go to university if you get a decent education to learn about the advantages of your future employment many people may disagree with my viewpoint, but I believe we are too young to get paid at this age; if money is more important to you than your education, you will most likely fail in high school and will not be admitted to university.  

Kids our age may be immature when it comes to spending the money we have. What I mean by "immature" is that they won't buy anything related to school or school supplies. Kids will be more concerned with money than with school, which will hinder their education.

Task Description: 

Persuasive Writing has been the focus of Team 5's literacy work. There are agrees and disagrees in persuasive writing, just as there are in an argument. My topic was 'Why should students be paid to attend to school?' I strongly disagreed with this viewpoint.

Healthy Me, Healthy You.

Today, Monday July The 26th It was the first day back in Point England School now that it is term 3. This term's theme is "Healthy me, Healthy you". This theme is based on about your body works and help your body stay healthy and active.

Team 4's movie was based on getting ready for the Cross Country and based on the healthy foods you eat and not the junk food. You can have a improvement with your body, but know It's good and healthy to eat the healthy things, but you should never go on this healthy diet thing because you don't like your weight. In the video Mr Hudges had talked about how Cross Country was nearly due, so he decided to make Cross Country practices for the students in the video. Some teachers were excited about eating healthy and doing a Cross Country practice and some weren't so happy about it. Mrs Sio and Miss Lagitupu decided to cut the race and eat cake while the other two actually participated in the practice. If you actually work and practice and participate on being healthy, you could have a big improvement. 

There were 3 teams. New Zealand, USA and Australia. The Australian performance was somewhat to do with a yoga ball. The scene that Ms. Hill did was really entertaining and really funny. There was actually a reason they did 'terrible' and that was because, they didn't drink water, didn't eat healthy and didn't stay fit.

Next it was the USA group. The USA group was based on staying fit, so basically running, doing hula hoops on your arms. So the USA group was basically saying you practice more often and stay fit.

Last but not least, The Team of New Zealand. Sadly there was only 1 person in the group but she was extremely confident that she was gonna beat USA and Australia. She did a cartwheel, and many other stuff. A lot of people were really happy with her on how she stayed fit, kept healthy and practiced.
